[Script]Swap2cache (make use of unused Memory)

i finally get it to work.

this script (if kernel support) create a swapfile on mostly unused /cache partition

-copy the script to phone
-chmod
-add it to end of hw_config.sh (or any other way of bootexecute)

sorry but you need a kernel with swap support ...

the easiest way is to use i.e. rootexplorer to run the script but then you have to do it after every reboot.

maybe a good idea for testing

will it work on ray?

What's benefits we have using swap file?
Thx for answer

So what kind of kernel, is DoomKernel support? why you dont give a sameple?

Interesting idea, I have setup swap as descriped but I had to change loop device to /dev/block/loop18 which was the only unused loop device on my mobile.

It was wierd, because all new loop devices I created was quickly reserved for the same app by the system, rather annoying. But luckily I had one unused allready available.

I will let you know how it works, how the system performance is percieved after some testing. I would think it could slow down the device, the memeory is increased but it will be on slower memory.
